HOORAY, I’ve updated. This is going to be a short one again.
Chap 2: On my tail… literally
There was a loud CRASH as another lazar beam hit the small space ship. The blast was so strong it knocked Deadeye of his gunner seat and knocked him unconscious. “Deadeye… Come in Deadeye… Deadeye we need you to shoot those toads down.” Bucky yelled threw the communications console.
“Deadeye’s out fore the count Captain. He fell and hit his head”
“Do you know how to use those cannons?” Bucky knew that even if she was only 7 he had to trust her. Desperate times call for desperate measures. (Ok that just sounded cliché)
“Yea, my uncial taught me the basics but I can improvise”
“Good, you know what to do. Hurry.”
With that Lilly hopped into the seat and took hold of the cannons, but the first thing she noticed was that the toads were out of the shooting zone so she had nothing to shoot . “It would help if I actually had something to shoot.” she called to Bucky.
“I know, and we’ve lost the Toad Croaker. But there is a Space Plane that Will had made before he left, use that.”
The first thing Deadeye heard when he woke up was the sound of a small plane taking of from the hanger. “Lilly! Bucky, where’s Lilly?”
“Deadeye! Glad your ok. You were out cold so Lilly took over, she’s taken the space plane”
Deadeye was not pleased. “Bucky, we have to get her out of their, she could die.” He knew that she was very important to Will and he didn’t want to let his best friend down by letting her die. Suddenly Lilly’s voice came threw. “Deadeye. Your ok! Ok, I’m getting the Toads to follow me into you’re shooting zone.” and Lilly and the space age plane flew in sight of the gunners window. “I see ya’, don’t worry, I’ve got ye back.”
“Is that supposed to make me feel better or frighten me?” Lilly teased.
“Oy, be nice to me or I might have to re-think about saving you next time.”
Deadeye shot most of the Double Bubbles down but Lilly tried to get him to stop.
“Stop, they’re on my tail.”
“Well that’s why I’m shootin’.”
“ No! I mean they’ve all escaped and are holding onto the tail of the plane.”
Deadeye watched as the plane exploded dew to too much pressure on the plane. “Deadeye, Bucky, I’m not going to make it. You’ve got to tern round.” she called as the planes tail set alight
“No! Bucky, we cant leave her here, we promised Will to look after her.” Then the plane was gone.
But far in the distance Blinky noticed a small black sphere, floating aimlessly threw space. It was Lilly’s escape pod. The one thing that went threw everyone’s mind, Is Lilly still alive?
